How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your Monero payout address on Monero mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, XMR is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
- Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only — not Tron TRC-20.
- Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
- If XMR has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.
Tether — USD-pegged stablecoin
USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) is widely used in DeFi — send only on Ethereum mainnet.
USDT on Ethereum mainnet
Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. TRC-20 USDT is a different asset.
Monero — privacy on by default
Monero uses ring signatures and one-time addresses so amounts and destinations stay confidential on-chain.
XMR payout not showing?
Wait for wallet sync to complete — Monero often needs several minutes to reflect incoming outputs.
If the order lists a payout tx but your synced wallet shows nothing, contact support.
Receiving XMR with privacy intact
Monero payouts use one-time addresses — your wallet must finish scanning recent blocks to display the balance.
- Use a fresh subaddress for each swap rather than reusing old receive addresses.
- Compare your wallet block height with a public explorer before assuming a payout failed.
- Allow extra time after the order shows sent — privacy features can delay wallet display.

Frequently asked questions
Does USDT to XMR require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Monero.
How long until XMR arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit confirmations and Monero mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or XMR for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and XMR is paid to the address you provide — PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send USDT on the wrong chain?
Use ERC-20 on Ethereum exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
